Download a copy of the People’s Action Guide—a sort of one-stop-shop toolkit that details what a Green Amendment is, how it works, and what steps you can take to advance a Green Amendment movement in your state. It’s a helpfu
l reference that makes Green Amendment knowledge accessible to everyone.
These two guides—one for states with Green Amendments and one for states working to secure them—break down Green Amendments at every step of the way, from the concept of constitutional environmental rights, to the victories that have affirmed their legal strength, to education and outreach tips to build your own Green Amendment coalition.
Here’s The Story, an Emmy nominated show that premiered in 2011 and is produced by acclaimed journalist Steve Rogers, is now featuring a two part show featuring the Green Amendment movement. The show joins Maya as she explores the history of the Green Amendment movement and meets with environmental, political and legal leaders key to the movements past, present and future. Among those interviewed is NJ Governor Phil Murphy, PA Senator Franklin Kury who originally conceived of the idea for PA, and the chief justice who wrote the iconic opinion that helped launch the movement.
